Maybe the OP can buy some "snow credits" from someone in [say] Hawaii so the icy weather would be transferred away from Pittsburgh to where they have very little snow. He could then enjoy his car more in the winter months.

Here in NY it's snowing, but not like south of here....We'll get 3-6 or less on Long Island, but it's enough for another dose of salt and sand that will muck up the roads for a few more weeks. Looks like another snow event is coming later this week too. Arrgghh.
I know it's February, and it's normal, but last winter was my first with the Vette and because it was mild with little snow, I was able to at least drive it on a few nice days.
I'm praying for few really hard rains to clean up the roads.......

Here in Northeast Mass the roads are clear of snow and most of the snow piles are small at this time.
But the roads are rough with pot holes everywhere.
Have been tempted to take a spin but there is soooo much Salt Dust on the roads there are Clouds of it following any cars driving down the road.
My DD in the driveway is covered with Salt dust from the dust clouds after it settles just from cars driving by

Hope the weather pattern remains like this the rest of the year. It'll make it so not much snow needs to melt come spring time
